Um, ICE just coldly shot an unarmed PRIEST in the head w a pepper ball when he (and everyone around him) clearly posed no threat.

For the crime of … complaining about government policy.

Core 1A speech.

With cameras rolling, they’re sniping priests for sport.

Kavanaugh says this is fine

I don’t think we’re going to have a normal presidential election at all but if we do I’d vote for Pritzker. You know he’ll seek retribution against these fascists, none of this “gotta move forward” forgive and forget stuff. People who should be in jail will be tried.

It's not just that they're going to strike down a law against conversion therapy, it's that they're going to do it on behalf of made-up claims from a straw plaintiff who can't honestly show the law affected her at all

May be of interest to the #covidcautious community. First published research from a larger ongoing project

Good thing the FOX News crowd won’t ever see this, it might really upset them

zeldawilliams 20m From Create Mode •• Please, just stop sending me AI videos of Dad. Stop believing I wanna see it or that I'll understand, I don't and I won't. If you're just trying to troll me, I've seen way worse, i'll restrict and move on. But please, if you've got any decency, just stop doing this to him and to me, to everyone even, full stop. It's dumb, it's a waste of time and energy, and believe me, it's NOT what he'd want. To watch the legacies of real people be condensed down to 'this vaguely looks and sounds like them so that's enough, , just so other people can churn out horrible TikTok slop puppeteering them is maddening. You're not making art, you're making disgusting, over-processed hotdogs out of the lives of human beings, out of the history of art and music, and then shoving them down someone else's throat hoping they'll give you a little thumbs up and like it. Gross.

And for the love of EVERYTHING, stop calling it 'the future. Al is just badly recycling and regurgitating the past to be reconsumed. You are taking in the Human Centipede of content, and from the very very end of the line, all while the folks at the front laugh and laugh, consume and consume.

Emotions: COVID-19, Fear, and Emotional Agenda Setting Download Citation | Emotions: COVID-19, Fear, and Emotional Agenda Setting | Fear is often conceived as a simple emotion representing an organism’s response to some clear threat. But in practice very ...

Here’s some research I did on early coverage of #covid in the New York Times. It shows that economic fears were over represented in the first four months of coverage relative to fears for human health and well being.

ICE agents are reportedly creeping around high schools in Chicago. And because they are wearing masks, often not wearing uniforms and using unmarked vehicles this means that ANYONE could show up dressed like this and disappear kids off the streets. This is especially dangerous

I guess I shouldn't be *surprised* but it is making my head spin that the feds have shot two people, with live rounds, killing one of them, in Chicagoland in recent weeks, and in both cases they were very clearly found to be lying about what happened, and essentially nothing is happening about it.

Ah but who can put a price on being an insane racist?

Carbon offsets fail to cut global heating due to ‘intractable’ systemic problems, study says Analysis of 25 years of evidence shows most schemes are poor quality and fail to lower emissions

News that shocks no one: Carbon offsets do nothing for climate.

Reminder that we still don’t know what happened to the 1,000 immigrants who went missing from Alligator Alcatraz.

Their families and attorneys can’t locate them.

They’ve been disappeared.

People are still being sent to that horrible place without any due process.

Claim: 10 cars rammed ICE
Truth: No cars rammed ICE

Claim: She boxed ICE in
Truth: ICE boxed her in

Claim: She shot a rifle at ICE
Truth: She did not have a rifle

Claim: ICE returned fire
Truth: Only ICE fired

Claim: She drove herself to the hospital
Truth: Paramedics found her

Schumer should draft a strongly worded letter now

If you can’t pinch run for Casty then you can’t do that play he’s the slowest guy on the team and they should know that

It's a pretty big deal that the NYC Bar Association--one of the most prominent and respected bar associations in the country--is accusing the President of ordering the "unlawful summary execution," i.e. murder--of civilians in violation of US and international law. www.nycbar.org/press-releas...

I honestly wonder what percentage of American citizens actually believe that every night ICE is in hand to hand combat w Antifa (whatever they think that even means). Can’t be more than 20 percent can it?

Could we debase ourselves any further? Here’s one way!

Plenty of room to be furious w Republicans w/o holding water for the Dems who allowed them to ascend imho

Bluesky is the last refuge of people who root for the Democrats unconditionally & either act as if fascism fell from the sky or blame voters for it

And Pennywise the clown has a passion for childcare

The choice has always been taxing these people appropriately or losing democracy, and we may have already passed the point of no return now.

The 13th Largest Army in World Is Unleashing Violence in Chicago As federal agents kill and use extreme force in Chicago, their budget surges.

If Trump's deportation machine were an army, it would be the 13th largest on earth, ahead of Poland, Canada, Iran. The funding increase kicked in Oct 1, as federal agents unleash violence on the Chicago area, raiding communities and brutalizing protesters. By me & Lindsay Koshgarian, 📷 Steel Brooks.

Yeah 58,000 American soldiers died in Vietnam bc they were too politically correct. It’s still amazing the shit he gets away with saying

We must now start calling this what it is: Trump’s Invasion. It started with federal agents, it will soon include deploying federalized members of the Illinois National Guard against our wishes, and it will now involve sending in another state’s military troops.

Maybe AI can go where BJ never could and figure out a good stat for “clutch”

Wow! I could see why they wouldn’t advertise that. I liked this guy better when he was just f-ing with squirrels in his backyard tho

I’m honestly not sure if we’re supposed to see it as a joke or a testament to the awesome power of AI. Like a little tongue in cheek but still “how cool is that!? Who knew?!” kinda thing.

I’ve been cracking up at these, like even for the most statistically obsessed sport they can’t come up with a genuine AI use case and are instead proudly showcasing AI’s ability to give nonsense the veneer of legitimacy
